Hall of Fame
A native of Oakland, California, Diana Diep ‘96SEAS helped pave the way for the future successes of Columbia archery as one of the first student-athletes to truly put their stamp on the program and its record books.
A four-year letterwinner for the Lions, Diep quietly climbed her way up the rankings before garnering some of the top honors in the Ivy League and in the nation.
As a junior in 1995, Diep became just the second archer in program history to earn All-America status as well as being named to the Academic All-Ivy League team. The following year, after being named a senior captain for the program, she went on to win the individual New York State Championship in 1996.
To cap off an outstanding career, Diep was honored at the annual Varsity ‘C’ Club Award ceremony, earning the Women’s Archery Award along with the Connie S. Maniatty Oustanding Senior Athlete Award. She remains today the only archer to have won the prestigious award.
